Pizza Ovens

The pizza oven is often seen as a central element when it comes to creating moments of sharing and social interaction.

At Anku, pizza ovens have become a real signature piece. We specialise in the creation of pizza ovens through participatory construction. In practical terms, this means you can build your own oven with friends and family or as a team-building experience for your company. The pizza ovens offer the possibility of baking up to four pizzas or six breads simultaneously.

Our participatory approach allows everyone to play an active part in building their own pizza oven. Whether you are an enthusiastic pizza lover or a DIY enthusiast, our participatory construction project offers you a fun and rewarding experience.

During the construction workshop, our team of enthusiasts will guide you through the various stages, providing you with the knowledge and skills you need to build a working pizza oven. You will have the opportunity to learn techniques to build with cob, handle materials and understand the basics of operating a wood fired pizza oven.

Imagine the satisfaction of seeing your pizza oven take shape before your very eyes, collaborating with loved ones to create a culinary tool that will bring you years of enjoyment. Once construction is complete, you will be ready to enjoy tasty pizzas and breads baked in your own artisan oven.

In addition to the practical aspect of building the oven, our participatory worksite approach also encourages moments of sharing and conviviality. Gathered around the common project, you and your loved ones will share laughs, discussions and precious memories while building your own pizza oven.

Join us for a participatory workshop and discover the pleasure of building your own pizza oven while sharing unforgettable moments with your loved ones.

 FAQ

  • The main difference is that a bread oven must be able to be completely closed by a door, without air entering or leaving the oven. When a chimney has to be built, the door has to be placed between the vault and the chimney to prevent heat loss through the chimney. Given that we have created an oven model without a chimney (because a chimney is not necessary outdoors), our pizza ovens are just as suitable for baking bread as they are for baking pizzas. You can also bake meat, pies and all the other dishes you are used to baking in your electric oven.

  • No, you don't need a chimney to extract the fumes outdoors. In fact, once the oven has reached temperature, there are no more fumes because they are consumed inside the oven.

  • For our pizza ovens, you need to allow about 45 minutes of heating time.

  • Yes, a roof is essential, as our ovens are made of clay, sand and straw. It is essential to shelter it from the rain to prevent erosion. If you don't have a sheltered area, we simply build a roof that is integrated into the oven’s base.
